After a quick ID check and security screening, your guide sets the tone with fun facts and a kid-friendly introduction to ancient Rome. Inside the Colosseum, your expert brings the world’s most famous amphitheater to life through stories of gladiator battles, wild animals, and ancient Roman crowds.
